Using of devm API leads to a certain order of releasing resources. So all dependent resources which are not devm-wrapped should be deleted with respect to devm-release order. Mutex is one of such objects that often is bound to other resources and has no own devm wrapping. Since mutex_destroy() actually does nothing in non-debug builds frequently calling mutex_destroy() is just ignored which is safe for now but wrong formally and can lead to a problem if mutex_destroy() will be extended so introduce devm_mutex_init() Signed-off-by: George Stark <gnstark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/mutex.h | 23 +++++++++++++++++++++++ kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 45 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/linux/mutex.h b/include/linux/mutex.h index a33aa9eb9fc3..ebd03ff1ef66 100644 --- a/include/linux/mutex.h +++ b/include/linux/mutex.h @@ -21,6 +21,8 @@ #include <linux/debug_locks.h> #include <linux/cleanup.h> +struct device; + #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC # define __DEP_MAP_MUTEX_INITIALIZER(lockname) \ , .dep_map = { \ @@ -127,6 +129,20 @@ extern void __mutex_init(struct mutex *lock, const char *name, */ extern bool mutex_is_locked(struct mutex *lock); +#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES + +int devm_mutex_init(struct device *dev, struct mutex *lock); + +#else + +static inline int devm_mutex_init(struct device *dev, struct mutex *lock) +{ + mutex_init(lock); + return 0; +} + +#endif + #else /* !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT */ /* * Preempt-RT variant based on rtmutexes. @@ -169,6 +185,13 @@ do { \ \ __mutex_init((mutex), #mutex, &__key); \ } while (0) + +static inline int devm_mutex_init(struct device *dev, struct mutex *lock) +{ + mutex_init(lock); + return 0; +} + #endif /* CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT */ /* diff --git a/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c b/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c index bc8abb8549d2..c9efab1a8026 100644 --- a/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c +++ b/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c @@ -19,6 +19,7 @@ #include <linux/kallsyms.h> #include <linux/interrupt.h> #include <linux/debug_locks.h> +#include <linux/device.h> #include "mutex.h" @@ -104,3 +105,24 @@ void mutex_destroy(struct mutex *lock) } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(mutex_destroy); + +static void devm_mutex_release(void *res) +{ + mutex_destroy(res); +} + +/** + * devm_mutex_init - Resource-managed mutex initialization + * @dev: Device which lifetime mutex is bound to + * @lock: Pointer to a mutex + * + * Initialize mutex which is automatically destroyed when the driver is detached. + * + * Returns: 0 on success or a negative error code on failure. + */ +int devm_mutex_init(struct device *dev, struct mutex *lock) +{ + mutex_init(lock); + return devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, devm_mutex_release, lock); +} +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(devm_mutex_init); -- 2.25.1
